In the context of any other draft, I would be a BIT more wavery on this.

But in this draft, where there really are a ton of unknowns and no real potential franchise players, this is an excellent, excellent, excellent pick. It looks like we may have been attempting to replace Tobias with an explosive version of him. Just those few highlights of him going coast-to-coast really did look Durant like. I'm very excited to have a point forward. MEMORIES OF ANTHONY MASON BRINGING THE BALL UP.

Bucks tricked me into being a diehard in 2001, LeBron is the 2nd best player ever, and pizza is awesome.

No pick would have got me more excited at 15.

On the interesting side, we currently have the longest frontcourt in the NBA, easily.

did you see how happy he was, despite being drafted by the Milwaukee Bucks?

Great pick.

Like the pick! Nice to be able to spite Ferry after the deadline shenanigan he pulled.

And is this really a sign we're looking at rebuilding, willing to get worse to get better? Are we leaning toward serving a single master??!!

I'm usually big on international players, but that is because I think they have underrated basketball skills. Giannis is the opposite.

I'll need to masturbate on it for a few days.

I want to send Ferry a fruit basket for those shenanigans.

In looking at this guy, won't he be able to defend right away? It appears so, maybe I've wrong. The defensive talent in our frontcourt right now is crazy. Offensively the roster is a trainwreck, hopefully they don't waste money in FA.

Seriously our wingspans read: 7'3", 7'5", 7'6", at the 3, 4, 5. That is bonkers. Looking forward to folks trying to score on the three condors.

If him Sanders and Henson are on the court together it would have to be the longest frontcourt in NBA history right? Hard to find another threesome longer.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.
